GDT: Caps at Isles

[MikeyMike01]

If we had a time machine and could go back 20 years and the Isles could get in a position to draft Ovechkin if they lost a bunch of games down the stretch...Wonder how many Isles fans would root for that.

The Islanders drafted 16th in 2004. Make some sense.

Yeah and Zajac was the obvious pick too yet the Isles and like 3-4 more after did not take him

 

[Zeeker]

God damn it he is controlling the tweets now!!! And then he somehow had no idea the PR department rolled out a f***ing carpet for him.

You’re being deliberately obtuse if you don’t think the marching orders come from on high

 

[Osakahaus]

Isles charging $45 for a printed ticket stub for today. What an embarrassment.

Perfect encapsulation of why I hate ownership

We finished in the middle of the standings that year? Lou would be proud

Social media people for teams evidently get fired fairly often so makes me wonder how often GMs are controlling what comes out of there

Fine, but ‘lose a couple games for Ovechkin’ was never on the table.

Gosh....It's just a hypothetical. Things would make sense if you loosened up.

Pretty funny since they didn't want to acknowledge the goal when it happened.

Kash Patel is an Islanders fan.

And that Janet Jones has those stupid fake lips?

 

[Sparksrus3]

The once beautiful Janet Jones turned into a plastic face fish lip Lake Trout …. Yukk

 

[periferal]

Jesus...Fix your sound TNT.

Just how.

 

[periferal]

And that Janet Jones has those stupid fake lips?

Such a shame what older women do to their faces.

 

[Bones45]

Ovi first star!?!?

 

[Zeeker]

So… can we start playing Hogberg again to help lose out the string?

Sorokin saw the @Satan'sIsland81 posts and took them personally

 

[periferal]

How upset must Brendan Burke be that he didn't get to announce Ovi's 895th goal. It's his home team so he had a 95% chance of being the announcer for it and his voice would've gone down in history. Literally an announcer's dream to get a call like that.

 

[Run It Back]

Win to further diminish your lottery chances while giving up an historic goal to a hated rival. A perfectly Islander day.

I was curious about that too, turns out he was born and raised in Garden City. Had no idea. I did know he plays hockey.

 

[Osakahaus]

Terrible. Isles ruin draft positioning and win a meaningless game, AND gave up the goal

This would’ve been an easy money parlay

The Capitals’ announcers are probably more disappointed

Oh I 100% know the orders from that ceremony did not come from Lou. Just like Lou did not tell that PR Department to make that tweet about the Capitals scoring.

I was deliberately making an obtuse point to show how ridiculous it is that Lou is telling the team what to tweet.

I saw him at the last game too. I assumed he was a Capitals fan chasing wherever to see the record live.

2-0 with out “the duke”
